Blogger’s Quilt Festival — Winners!

Winners – at last!

Thank you to everyone that has participated in the Festival. I’m always amazed at the mass of genuine and generous quilters willing to share their quilts and the story that goes with it. I was talking about my blog with a group of teachers last week, and read an entry to them — there were many of us in tears (myself included) and that’s just one example of how powerful our words are. I hope that you have been inspired and moved while perusing the festival. There’s a lot of love in each of our quilts! The best part is – the quilts will forever be on display here – so there’s lots of time to check them all out! Please send me your feature nominations as you look – I’ve gotten a few, but need lots more.

After the Festival is complete, I take some time with the random number generator, select numbers and verify that the winners have posted, and commented within the guidelines. While there aren’t numbers on your thumbnails, there are in my admin page for the linky, so I use those to select and verify winners. Keystroke commands have been my friends this weekend, as I have searched, and copy/pasted url’s and email addresses for each winner!

Below is the master list of winners! Congratulations to you all!! You should have an email from me in your inbox already, and if you don’t – go check your spam folder. Thank you to all the generous sponsors for providing great prizes! (There’s more than one that I really want!) haha

Blessings,

Amy

Contragulations to all the winners! And thank you times about a million, Amy, for organizing all of this. I’ve had so much fun looking at all the quilts, reading their stories and getting inspired to try new things.

Congratulations on a such a successful Festival! Kudos to you for all your hard work. I’m so inspired by all the entries that I can’t wait to make some new quilts to choose for the next festival. And congrats to all the luck winners. I am excited to actually know the person (yay Mary) who won my giveaway from Patchwork Trails.

Wow, nearly 700 quilts, that’s amazing! Thanks for organizing and arranging the Festival again. Though I am not a winner of any prizes, I really enjoyed posting my entry and reading so many others’ stories. It was fun this 4th time and will be next time too!

Congrats to all the winners, and all the bloggers who participated – I’m still not through all the entries, it’s wonderful to relax in the evening and browse them all, such fabulous quilts and stories.

Congratulations to your winners Amy- It is a great festival so many fabulous quilts- I am still trying to read my way through all those terrific stories.
Thanks for setting up the festival and for adding the thumbnail photographs. It made it feel even more like a show.

I was working on a comfort quilt to post but did not get it delivered in order to post a photo in time so I missed out this year but I will have tons of fun pouring through all the many quilts that were posted! Lots of new friends in the making!

Congratulations to all the winners! But I feel like everyone is a winner with all these wonderful quilts and blogs to visit. Thank you Amy for all your hard work in putting together another wonderful festival of quilts!!

Hi I'm Amy! Here's what you need to know about me - I love to sew! I learned to sew garments as a girl, then taught myself to quilt as a young mom. I've been writing books and patterns for the last five years, and hope to inspire you in your own quilting journey!
